Easter Baking & Treats: 5 Adorable Recipes to Try This Spring

Easter is typically all about the eggs. We decorate them, then hide them, then find them and so on. But, when it comes to getting the most out of Easter, the eggs are but just a small part of the overall fun. In today’s blog, we’re going to celebrate and lift up some delicious baked goodies that you and your family can make together this Easter to make things just a little sweeter.

Classic Decorated Sugar Cookies

Nothing says Easter like a fresh batch of colorful, festive, and tasty sugar cookies. With this recipe, you will love how easy the dough is to make and they even provide a full frosting guide that will help your cookies come out perfectly every time. We recommend making about double the amount of dough you will need so that you can freeze any extra uncooked dough for use later on. In a month or two, you can take it out and slice your dough log into another fresh batch of cookies to enjoy as is or with plenty of frosting. 

Festive Bunny And Chick Cupcakes

If you enjoy a little cuteness along with deliciousness, then this recipe is for you. It is an easy yet fun recipe that allows you and your kids to make some adorable bunny and baby chick cupcakes that will tickle your funny bone as well as satisfy your sweet tooth.

Carrot Cake Easter Truffles

You just can’t have Easter without some carrot cake and this is an easy way to try something new without tossing your traditional carrot cake flavors by the wayside. Surprisingly, these are also on the healthier side of things and are packed with fresh carrots, nuts, and other tasty yet less sugary ingredients. Let us know how yours turn out!

No-Bake Bird’s Nest Chocolate Cookies

If you’re wanting to put something together that is a little faster or safer to do with the kids, then this recipe is just right for you. These no-bake cookies are packed with flavor and delightful decorations but don’t require you to use the oven, which is great if you have little helpers at your side. You can decorate them however you’d like and there are only four ingredients for the cookie base (other ingredients may come in handy if you want to decorate them). 

Homemade Easter Egg Cheesecake Bars

If you’d like your Easter treats a little more on the indulgent side, then this recipe is perfect for you. These bars are actually easy to make, especially when compared to the massive undertaking that goes with making actual cheesecakes, and they produce a delightful bar that is full of cheesecake flavor and serves as the perfect vessel for decorating.
